Best Quotes about Friends and friendship

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.
Quarles, Francis

In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures.
Gibran, Kahlil

3.
True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.
Thoreau, Henry David

Cicero, Marcus T.

5.
A friend walks in when everyone else walks out

6.
Friends and neighbors, the taxes are indeed very heavy, and if those laid on by the government were the only ones we had to pay, we might more easily discharge them; but we have many others, and much more grievous to some of us. We are taxed twice as much by our idleness, three times as much by our pride, and four times as much by our folly; and from these taxes the commissioners cannot ease or deliver us by allowing abatement.
Franklin, Benjamin

Friendship makes prosperity brighter, while it lightens adversity by sharing its grieves and anxieties.
Cicero, Marcus T.

11.
Friendship is held to be the severest test of character. It is easy, we think, to be loyal to a family and clan, whose blood is in your own veins. Love between a man and a woman is founded on the mating instinct and is not free from desire and self-seeking. But to have a friend and to be true under any and all trials is the mark of a man!
Eastman, Charles Alexander

12.
What is thine is mine, and all mine is thine.
Plautus, Titus Maccius

Life has no blessing like a prudent friend.
Euripides

14.
Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow-ripening fruit.
Aristotle

Old friendships are like meats served up repeatedly, cold, comfortless, and distasteful. The stomach turns against them.
Hazlitt, William

16.
Broken friendships can be soldered, but never sound.
Proverb

17.
Rare as is true love, true friendship is rarer.
La Fontaine, Jean De

18.
Friendship is essentially a partnership.
Aristotle

19.
Those who forgets their friends to follow those of a higher status are truly snobs.
Thackeray, William M.

20.
The difficulty is not that great to die for a friend, the hard part is finding a friend worth dying for.
Home, Henry

21.
I value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar.
Brault, Robert

22.
You may poke a man's fire after you've known him for seven years.
Proverb, English

23.
Hopes are planted in friendship's garden where dreams blossom into priceless treasures.

24.
Only solitary men know the full joys of friendship. Others have their family --but to a solitary and an exile his friends are everything.
Cather, Willa

25.
True friendship comes when silence between two people is comfortable.
Gentry, David Tyson

26.
Who ceases to be a friend never was one.
Proverb, Greek

One who looks for a friend without faults will have none.
Saying, Hasidic

There is a scarcity of friendship, but not of friends.
Fuller, Thomas

30.
A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked.
Meltzer, Bernard

31.
Those that are a friend to themselves are sure to be a friend to all.
Seneca

32.
A good friend who points out mistakes and imperfections and rebukes evil is to be respected as if he reveals a secret of hidden treasure.
Buddha

33.
If a man does not make new acquaintances as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone; one should keep his friendships in constant repair.
Johnson, Samuel

34.
Awards become corroded, friends gather no dust.
Owens, Jesse

35.
A true friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else.
Wein, Len

36.
A friend is a present you give to yourself.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

37.
To keep a new friend, never break with the old.
Proverb, Russian

38.
In poverty and other misfortunes of life, true friends are a sure refuge. The young they keep out of mischief; to the old they are a comfort and aid in their weakness, and those in the prime of life they incite to noble deeds.
Aristotle

39.
Love demands infinitely less than friendship.
Nathan, George Jean

40.
If I cannot understand my friend's silence, I will never get to understand his words.
Powell, John Enoch

41.
A mirror reflects a man's face, but what he is really like is shown by the kind of friends he chooses. [Proverbs 27:19]
Bible

42.
I keep my friends as misers do their treasure, because, of all the things granted us by wisdom, none is greater or better than friendship.
Aretino, Pietro

Do not choose for your friends and familiar acquaintance those that are of an estate or quality too much above yours...You will hereby accustom yourselves to live after their rate in clothes, in habit, and in expenses, whereby you will learn a fashion and rank of life above your degree and estate, which will in the end be your undoing.
Hale, Matthew

44.
Show me a friend in need and I'll show you a pest.
Lewis, Joe E.

45.
Let your best be for your friend...
Gibran, Kahlil

46.
These can never be true friends: Hope, dice, a prostitute, a robber, a cheat, a goldsmith, a monkey, a doctor, a distiller.
Proverb, Indian

47.
Tell me who's your friend and I'll tell you who you are.
Proverb, Russian

48.
The mind is lowered through association with inferiors. With equals it attains equality; and with superiors, superiority.
Hitopadesa

49.
Friendships that have stood the test of time and chance are surely best, Brows may wrinkle, hair grow gray, Friendship never knows decay.

50.
Real friends are those who, when you've made a fool of yourself, don't feel that you've done a permanent job.
Randall, Erwin T.
